Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page in aid of the butterfly AVM charity.

On the 5th September, with two of my best friends I will be taking part in a 5k colour fun run (Obstacle course)

I'm taking part in this event as I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to raise awareness of AVM (Arteriovenous Malformation). If someone was to ask me 2 months ago what AVM was I would not have had any idea, until now. My amazing friend Eleanor and her beautiful family have gone through so much pain after the loss of their 10 year son/brother Matthew, and the only thing I can think of doing is raising money for the butterfly AVM chairty so that the money raised can go towards spreading awareness and looking for cures.

The kilvington/newbold's strength is extraordinary and everyone should know that, I envy their families strength and bond throughout the difficult time. I want to remember matthews life in a fun and enjoyable way for him and his family, which can also help other families in the future - every little helps.
